VOLUNTEER BOARD MEMBERS

Friends of Borne is a US-based organization, but we are led by Johnny Estimable and the other education trailblazers in Haiti.

These are the US-based members from Honeoye Falls and the Rochester, NY area who support the goals of Haiti-based Fondasyon Dauphin and other efforts to educate Haiti’s next generation.
